Stay Gold is a petite girl with a height of 142cm with dark brown hair that fades to a deep ochre at the tips.

This resembles how the real life horse's dark brown coat fades to a brighter ochre at the tip of his muzzle.

She has a white strand of hair that resembles the star and disconnected stripe face marking of the actual horse.

Stay gold has straight, nonchalant eyes and her iris transitions from a deep violet to gold, with white pupils.

She wears an embellished golden ear cuff that is attached to a black and white feather with aquamarine beads on her left ear, and a simpler ear cuff on her right ear.

She has black ear covers on both ears. The feather may be a reference to Stay Gold's win in the 2001 G1 Hong Kong Vase where his jockey, Yutaka Take said that "it was as if wings had sprouted on his back".

Stay Gold also wore a black hood with black ear covers during the same race.

Stay Gold's clothing appears to be that of an explorer, which may be a reference to the horse's Hong Kong name that directly translates to 'Golden Journey'.

She wears a white dress shirt of uneven length underneath a harness that is crossed around her waist from which hangs a dagger and a cylindrical glass container.

She wears black dress pants with a rip that are tucked into knee-length laced black boots with a golden toe box.

The rip may be referencing the white streak on the real horse's front left inner thigh.

She also hangs a compass from her belt loop, and an oversized pair of goggles around her neck.

Stay Gold wears a yellow-gold trench coat with gun flaps and a storm shield covering the chest area.

The edges of the coat seems distressed with ragged, torn edges.

This references the length of Stay Gold's racing career in real life where he ran a total of 50 races from 1996 to 2001, a career of 5 years which is considerably longer than the average racehorse.

Long, black belts drape down the sides of the trench coat, resembling the black stripes of Stay Gold's racing silk.

A royal blue piece of cloth is draped around her upper arms to resemble the blue stripe on the racing silk.

She wears a black glove on her right hand and a fingerless version on her left hand.

This resembles the white sock on the real horse's front left hoof.
